    Alpinestars boot repair?

    My google-fu is weak today. I seem to recall there was a place to have new soles put onto A* boots. My favorite pair is in need of a new sole. Wasn't there some place you can ship your boots off to and get new factory spec soles put on?

    I just sent a spare pair in for the same thing. Took about a week and they look like new.

    http://www.factoryresole.com/ - The site will make you say "uhhhh, I don't think so!", but, they have a reputation for being awesome. The site says MX boots and shows Alpinestars but they will do any boots. I have yet to have them do my boots but have seen their work. I'm actually sending my boots off to them this week. Don't buy soles as they are included in the price. You can send a check/money order instead of your credit card # on a piece of paper. Email them, they will respond.

    I had new zippers, soles, and some other odds-n-ends replaced/repaired by a-stars, and they did an amazing job for a reasonable fee. Now, if only you had a-stars boots.....LOLZ!
